Wednesday, May 30th, 2012
Description
NextBio relies on HBase to store the world’s largest collection of continuously curated genomic knowledge. The HBase cluster is leveraged to store billions of correlations as well as processed genomic information. In this talk, we will describe how we use HBase, why we migrated from a large MySQL deployment to HBase, and the challenges along the way.
